FHFA plan to change mortgage credit-data requirements puts Fannie in focus
Stock Movers reported that the FHFA plans to direct Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to require lenders to use 2 credit bureaus instead of 3.[1][2]
Stock Movers said the requirement could be announced by FHFA director Bill Pulte as soon as October 12, while noting his calls for lower fees from credit bureaus and FICO.[2]
The Compound and Friends argued that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were using the pricing framework, with consumers bearing the costs through closing costs.[3]
The Compound and Friends relayed Rocket Mortgage's claim that testing VantageScore produced more qualified prospective buyers and average closing savings of $1,600 per loan.[3]
Prof G Markets discussed Fannie and Freddie as approving, buying, bundling and selling mortgage bonds with a semi-explicit government guarantee, while Bloomberg Daybreak referred to them in conventional mortgage qualification.[4][5]
